Swiping this from reddit. Chronological events. Everything following this is copypasta:
I decided to start putting this together last night because I realized that a lot of the information that I and others were getting about the case was getting filtered through a very long game of telephone. I could not find anywhere on the internet where all of the information released so far could be viewed in a seamless manner, so I decided to spend a few hours putting it together myself.
I've collected all of the sworn testimonies affidavits, along with statements by relevant parties and other smaller details. I was originally using
this article for the summaries of each lawsuit, but a few cases into this project I realized that those summaries leave out a lot of important details and some of the JANE DOE's don't match-up, so I ended up drafting most of the summaries myself. I sometimes still used their summary as a skeleton to build off of, so if some of the summaries read like they've been written by two different people, that's why.
Each summary includes a link to the full lawsuit. The highlighted portions of each summary are the most important details, if you're just trying to skim. Each summary includes the relevant dates along with the credentials/employment of each JANE DOE, so hopefully some of the rumors claiming that most of these women were "Instagram Hookers" can be put to rest.
Everything is in chronological order based on the dates of the alleged assaults, along with the day-by-day events/statements that have been released the past week. JANE DOE 1 just so happened to be the earliest accusation, JANE DOE 13 was the second earliest, ect.
I have also transcribed Tony Buzbees entire opening statement from his press conference, in case anyone would prefer to read it. I can't fit it into this post but I'll comment it and then link it to the relevant spot.
There will no doubt be mistakes throughout this, my brain did start to overheat towards the last few JANE DOEs. So if you catch any please let me know so that I can correct them. I want people to be able to use this as a resource to prevent misinformation.
OBSERVATIONS
________________________________________________________________________
JANE DOE 1 (!)
First contact: March 28th, 2020
Allegations: March 30th, 2020
Credentials: Licensed Massage Therapist/Business Owner
Summary:
The plaintiff accuses Watson of civil assault during a massage at her home last March. Watson reached out to her on March 28th to schedule an appointment. The plaintiff had been working hard to grow her small business since 2018.
Plaintiff was excited and encouraged that a local sports star was seeking out her services.
Via text, Watson asked the plaintiff if she was "comfortable with certain areas [his] organization was making [him] get worked on".
Watson also asked her
"Am I expecting to see someone else there? Is it just you.". This gave the plaintiff pause, but she was able to justify it to herself by assuming Watson just wanted privacy.
During the massage,
Watson began to aggressively dictate the massage and complain that she was not doing what he wanted. The plaintiff began to think that Watson only wanted sex.
Watson repeatedly directed her towards his penis. She alleges that he purposely exposed the tip of his now fully erect penis from under the towel. He began moving himself to expose himself more, and eventually turned to touch her hand with his penis.
The plaintiff immediately ended the massage and started to cry. After telling him to leave, Watson said
"I know you have a career and a reputation, and I know you would hate for someone to mess with yours, just like I don't want anyone messing with mine."
Later, Watson reached out to her via text message to apologize. She did not respond.
A few weeks later, she was DM'ed on Instagram by
two other NFL players, saying "Big D" had recommended her to them. The lawsuit implies that she did not respond to these messages either.
JANE DOE 13
First contact: April 19th, 2020
Allegations: April 19th, 2020
Credentials: Licensed Esthetician/Business Owner
Summary:
When Watson reached out to this plaintiff for a massage,
she was confused, as she is an esthetician who only markets and offers skin care services. However, she was excited that an NFL player was reaching out to use her services.
Watson told her that he liked to keep his business confidential.
She told Watson that she did not specialize in massages and Watson indicated that it was fine. Plaintiff told Watson over DM that
she was nervous as she had never worked with a famous athlete before. Watson promised to walk her through it and give her direction.
After arriving at the spa,
Watson aggressively dictated the session. Watson asked the plaintiff to "go deeper" into his buttocks. The plaintiff says that she began to get scared, but assumed that Watson was used to licensed professionals and would not be making unusual requests.
When Watson turned onto his back, he dropped the towel,
exposing his erect penis. He told her not to pick the towel up. As the plaintiff massaged Watson's groin area, he repeatedly turned to touch her hand with his penis. Plaintiff was frightened and confused but she tried to ignore it.
Shortly after,
Watson ejaculated. She was mortified and told a family member afterwards.
JANE DOE 15 (!)
First contact: May 2020
Allegations: May 28th, 2020
Credentials: Licensed Personal Trainer/Business Owner
Summary:
According to this lawsuit, Watson requested a massage from the
married plaintiff in May 2020.
The
massage was scheduled to take place at his house and he told her to come to the session dressed in "casually relaxing attire" and also that
"you don't have to be full professional," according to the lawsuit.
During the session,
Watson exposed his erect penis and wiped pre-ejaculate onto her hand. As soon as he did this, the plaintiff froze from fear and confusion. She began repeating "I do not know. I do not know."
She ended the massage immediately. He got up, still completely naked, and
asked to give her a hug. She refused and rushed out of the house.
She says that she told a friend and a family member what had happened as soon as she got home.
According to the lawsuit the woman "felt violated and disgusted and felt as though she was trapped in some weird nightmare" after the incident.
The lawsuit goes on to claim that
Watson texted her the same day and asked if she was OK and also repeatedly reached out asking to book her again. She says she either ignored or rejected the requests.
JANE DOE 7
First contact: June 2020
Allegations: June 2nd, 2020
Credentials: Licensed Massage Therapist/Business Owner
Summary:
The plaintiff is a licensed massage therapist with
eleven years experience who works regularly with athletes. She says that she has never had any issues prior to Watson.
She said he told her
“I make a lot of massage therapists uncomfortable and it’s really hard for me to find someone who will meet my needs.”
Watson also kept asking that the massage be really private and asked if anyone else would be around when he arrived at the location.
As soon as the massage started, Watson laid face down on the table completely nude, exposing his buttocks.
She insisted that he cover up but he refused. He exposed his penis to her several times.
She said she felt trapped and angry, as she prides herself on her reputation. She says that she became terrified as
Watson kept twisting his body to touch her with his penis.
Afterwards,
Watson contacted her seven more times to schedule another appointment. She either declined or ignored all of his requests and never worked with him again.
